oh, I was gonna use connectors to implement this filters ... seems like extra complexity if they need to be synced. |

Looks great, just the one not about int-> Optional float, then we can merge.
Hey @gjoliver , yeah filters may still have some features (synching) that we don't support with connectors yet. But I'm not too sure it's really that important. Even if you use something like MeanStdFilter and workers don't sync, you'd probably still be able to learn properly given that the distribution of states that each worker's trajectory covers is somewhat uniform between the workers. |

Why are these changes needed?
The filters that Rollout Workers apply to metrics are updated regularely as part of the training_step().
This operation includes a ray.get() that is lacking a timeout.
Without knowing the specifics of why this times out on my local machine when running IMPALA, I propose to set a timeout here so that we do not get stuck on this unnoticed.
